GolfBuddy Voice 2 Golf GPS/Rangefinder

We have had Sky Caddies and ran into problems along the way. For the price, this is really cool and accurate.

I don't write many reviews, but I am compelled to write this review to clarify some misconceptions that are clearly due to operator error. First, several people complained that the device is not accurate-- that it consistently underestimates yardage. Ummm.... this appears to be true only because the device is showing the distance in meters instead of yards. (I have inadvertently changed the measurement units a couple of times myself, but realized my mistake.) I have found battery life to be great. I can easily get 8 hours of use from a single charge. I suspect that those getting poor battery life have either a bad micro-usb cable (who ever thought micro usb was a good thing!!??) or perhaps a charger that is malfunctioning. I might also get better battery life because I do not use the voice. Another complaint is that it sometime reads the wrong hole if you pass a tee box or hit into the wrong fairway, and that there is no way to fix that problem. The device displays the hole it is reading, and it is, in fact, very simple to change holes being displayed--read the instructions before complaining, people! I have had my unit for about 2 years and have played hundreds of rounds with absolutely no problem. It is very accurate when compared to my rangefinder, which I now only use on unfamiliar courses to find distances to hazards. There are limits to the GPS--like all GPS devices, it reads as the crow flies so that severe doglegs are underestimated, and this GPS has no distance to hazard function. Having this GPS definitely speeds up play because it is continuously measuring distance as you move, so that unlike with a rangefinder, there is no stop, press a button and wait for a distance. Although I don't use it this function, it is worth mentioning that you can also measure the distance of shots after they are made. This is a basic unit, but what it does do, it does well.

It works pretty good it gets you in the ballpark I don't think it is real accurate I've talked to a couple other people who have different rangefinders in this one is off by 10 yards or so all the time compared to theirs but I'm not a professional so 10 yd doesn't mean that much to me if I get it close I'm happy

It's easy to use and a great value for the money.

we have had one in the past and we probably wore it out so it was time to get a new one.

Good to have the distances read out to you.

I love this product. Super easy to use. I clip mine onto my hat. All you have to do is push a button and it tells you the yardage from either the front, middle or back of the green.

Used to used the cheap gps watch range finders, made the switch to this. Clip it to my hat. Has every golf course I’m ever gonna go to pre-programmed, and it’s accurate! Couldn’t be happier. Voice feature is kinda nice sometimes.
